// This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
// See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

// ----------------------------------------------------------------------
// This initial setup, which involves setting the OAuth1 properties and connecting
// to api.twitter.com, is only required once at the beginning.  Once connected, the same
// object instance may be re-used, and if necessary, it will automatically reconnect
// as needed.

// Assume we've previously obtained an access token and saved it to a JSON file..
// For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use new COM('Chilkat_9_5_0.Chilkat.JsonObject')
